        SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

        In a minute you’ll find out what you need to write (assuming you’ve not skipped ahead). Before we get there, though, I just want to remind you a little about the “rules”:

        The “minimum” word count is 1,500 words. There is no upper limit. On the previous events, chapters have ranged anywhere from the minimum up to about 5,000 words. If it comes to it, though, I’d rather receive a 1,000 word response than no response at all.

        Please remember that quality and not volume i...

        STYLE GUIDE:

        There are relatively few rules here. Don’t worry about font and such the like as I’ll be taking care of all the formatting and layout in Scrivener when I import and compile. The limited rules we have are:

        ■ Use “double quotes” for speech
        ■ Use British English if you can.
        ■ Don’t use blank lines between paragraphs. Use indentation instead.
        ■ Highlight any blank lines and scene breaks you want in the finished piece with three hash signs (###). Any blank lines you leave will be d...

      • Final Note of Advice
        1) THE “CHAPTER DETAILS” SHOULD BE CONSIDERED THE MINIMUM YOU CAN PUT IN.

        You can add whatever additional colour you like. For example, the following was Keith Blount’s brief in the 2012 NiaD “Lunar520”:

        BLATANT STATEMENT OF THE OBVIOUS: THIS IS NOT YOUR BRIEF. THIS IS JUST AN ILLUSTRATION FROM A PREVIOUS YEAR.

        Starts with
        JACOB RHODES, the commander, going to the communication console.
